Thanks for replying MaryK4. Truly a life saver..
So in order I can:
1. File MFJ for federal
2. Do a "mock" seperate federal return for only her to generate a Rhode island return. Is she filing "single" on the mock federal return to generate the Rhode island return "single"? Just wondering if we'll get in trouble her filing single in RI and MFJ in federal. Don't know if state and feds crosscheck.
3. File Maryland Jointly, me as resident and her as nonresident. Is there any link to show how I'd do that in the software? When the states pop up, it only gives the option to file resident or nonresident for the whole tax return.
4. File North Dakota jointly, me as nonresident and her as resident. Same question as Maryland above.
